These boots have been my favorites for a while now. They made the hike into and out of Havasupai must easier. I do like to go at least a half a size up when selecting hiking boots.

Definitely great to have when hiking in and out of the canyon. One the way down I wore a tank top and had big regrets from my bag rubbing my shoulders raw.

I love these shorts and they are quick drying which helped on the hikes. They do have built in underwear.

We all definitely either loved having a footprint or wishing we would have had one. It was nice to put your tent on plus gave a little space to place things without placing them on the dirt.
